Polydopamine Nanoparticle-Based Combined Chemotherapy and Photothermal Therapy for the Treatment of Liver Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) are proposed as an anti-cancer tool against hepatocellular carcinoma through the combination of near-infrared (NIR)-mediated hyperthermia and loading with a chemotherapeutic drug, sorafenib (SRF). Cell membranes isolated from a liver cancer cell line (HepG2) have been exploited for the coating of the nanoparticles (thus obtaining CM-SRF-PDA NPs), to promote homotypic targeting toward cancer cells. The selective targeting ability and the combined photothermal and chemotherapeutic activity of the CM-SRF-PDA NPs following NIR irradiation have been evaluated on cell cultures in static and dynamic conditions, besides three-dimensional culture models. Eventually, the therapeutic effectiveness of the proposed approach has also been tested ex ovo on HepG2 spheroid-grafted quail embryos. This comprehensive investigation, supported by proteomic analysis, showed the effectiveness of the proposed nanoplatform and strongly suggests further pre-clinical testing in the treatment of liver cancer.

Project description:Purpose: Nanoparticles (NPs) of the polydopamine (PDA)-based,loaded with temozolomide (TMZ) and conjugated with Pep-1 (Peptide-1) as a feasible nano-drug delivery system were constructed and utilized for chemotherapy (CT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) of glioblastoma (GBM). Method: PDA NPs were synthesized from dopamine (DA) hydrochloride and reacted with TMZ to obtain the PDA-TMZ NPs and then the PDA NPs and the PDA-TMZ NPs were conjugated and modified by Pep-1 to obtain the Pep-1@PDA NPs and Pep-1@PDA-TMZ NPs via the Schiff base reaction (SBR), respectively.Their dimensions, charge, and shape were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The assembly of TMZ was verified by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and ultraviolet and visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The biostability of both the nanocarrier and the synthetic NPs were validated using water and fetal bovine serum (FBS). The antitumor activities of the PDA-TMZ NPs and Pep-1@PDA-TMZ NPs were verified in U87 cells and tumor-bearing nude mice. Results: The prepared PDA NPs, PDA-TMZ NPs, Pep-1@PDA NPs, and Pep-1@PDA-TMZ NPs were regular and spherical, with dimension of approximately 122, 131, 136, and 140 nm, respectively. The synthetic nanoparticles possessed good dispersity, stability,solubility, and biocompatibility. No obvious toxic side effects were observed, and the loading rate of TMZ was approximately 50%.In vitro research indicated that the inhibition ratio of the Pep-1@PDA-TMZ NPs combined with 808 nm laser was approximately 94% for U87 cells and in vivo research was approximately 77.13%, which was higher than the ratio of the other groups (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Pep-1 was conjugated and modified to PDA-TMZ NPs, which can serve as a new targeted drug nano-delivery system and can offer a CT and PTT integration therapy against GBM. Thus, Pep-1@PDA-TMZ NPs could be a feasible approach for efficient GBM therapy, and further provide some evidence and data for clinical transformation so that gradually conquer GBM.
